The Building Of Today


once again
I shall retrace
the terrain of you
where familiarity
becomes a
different view
touching
the thin lines
of highs and lows
altering a map
long traveled
now in transpose
finding yesterday
gone
yet today being
the time of birth
re-exploring each inch
of sea, air,
and earth
each grain
of sand moved
and moments
slipped away
shall be
a new path
the building of today

Your writing is like a map of your inner journey, which is how it should be. I like how you include the elements, and the tone is like that of eavesdropping on you having a conversation with your soul.

It's wonderful to read you again, h.

and it's great to be home.

BRAVO!!! Oh Helen, this is wonderful, your words draw out an atlas of truth and chart a territory of promises I know you will encounter with all my heart! (kiss on cheek) This is smooth and fabulous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
